I'm using etckeeper and right now it's backing up log files of thelounge. This wouldn't be the case if it was set up like @Celti mentions.

Are you considering this?

There's precedent in other packages (various things that install to /usr/share/webapps come to mind) to use the sensible install location, then move the configuration to /etc and symlink to that from where the application expects it; e.g., /var/lib/thelounge/config.js -> /etc/thelounge/config.js.

@S13ntist

I could dump everything to /var but that just means that now the configs are in the wrong place.

There are packages whose configuration files live in /var too because they are together with the data. E.g. postgres.

@Lucki it's both actually, config and data. I proposed to split the two directories from each other, but that involved some hackery with symlinks as upstream doesn't support it.

meaning won't fix, works as designed

Right now the complete home folder is set to /etc/thelounge. According to the guidelines this would probably better be placed in /var/lib/thelounge/ as that folder is for persistent application storage?

@xogium I run a test build before committing, but I've just tried it again and it seems to work for me (pardon the french): https://gist.github.com/maxpoulin64/a2636b2b085d3480207149919f4265ab

The line that errors for you is: grep -FRlZ "$startdir" "$pkgdir" | \ xargs -0 -- sed -i "s|$startdir|/tmp/build|g"

Which is there to remove references to the build directory from the sources. That means for some reason the build process didn't leave the build path in for you so nothing ends up passed to sed. You can safely remove that line from the PKGBUILD and it should build.

It appeares the build is failing for me for v2.7. I tried with aurutils-git and with makepkg itself, manually:

uws@9.14.0 install /build/thelounge/pkg/thelounge/usr/lib/node_modules/thelounge/node_modules/uws node-gyp rebuild > build_log.txt 2>&1 || exit 0 + thelounge@2.7.1 added 236 packages in 10.084s sed: no input files ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package(). Aborting...

Is anyone else having this issue ? Thanks

Thanks for the notice, forgot about those.

$pkgdir/usr/lib/node_modules/$_npmname/.lounge_home should probably be renamed to $pkgdir/usr/lib/node_modules/$_npmname/.thelounge_home and the services should execute /usr/bin/thelounge instead of /usr/bin/lounge in preparation for thelounge v3, see section 'Deprecated' on https://github.com/thelounge/lounge/releases/tag/v2.7.0
